Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My Project
I teach in a Title I school where resources and limited and students are thirsty for more each day! My students are inquisitive, by nature, and good humans because we invest our time into them! My students come from low-income homes, and they have high demands for learning that require me to think on my feet. When people why I teach in a tough place, my response is always the San: I want to work with kids that will help me to grow and push me to do better/be every day all of the time!
